Necessary permissions for a NetBackup administrator

Hi all,

In our company there is always a quarrel about permissions on the systems we have to backup, most Windows and Linux. The administrators of these systems will not allow any permissions, which slows down (if not completely stops) troubleshooting.

The least we find necessary are logon rights, full rights on the logs directories and capability of issueing bprdreq   and vxlogcfg   commands.

Any thoughts about this issue in this community? 

  • media servers have to communicate to master, no way around that. So your best bet would be to remote execute it on the media server from the client.
